1.3 Flow measurement principle
The TUF-2000F ultrasonic flow meter is designed to measure the fluid velocity of liquid within a closed
conduit. The transducers are a non-contacting, clamp-on type, which will provide benefits of non-fouling
operation and easy installation.
The TUF-2000F transit-time flow meter utilizes two transducers that function as both ultrasonic transmitters
and receivers. The transducers are clamped on the outside of a closed pipe at a specific distance from
each other. The transducers can be mounted in V-method where the sound transverses the pipe twice, or
W-method where the sound transverses the pipe four times, or in Z-method where the transducers are
mounted on opposite sides of the pipe and the sound crosses the pipe once. This selection of the mounting
method depends on pipe and liquid characteristics. The flow meter operates by alternately transmitting and
receiving a frequency modulated burst of sound energy between the two transducers and measuring the
transit time that it takes for sound to travel between the two transducers. The difference in the transit time
measured is directly and exactly related to the velocity of the liquid in the pipe, show as follows:

the pipe is regarded as empty pipe, and the flow meter will not totalize flow.
This is based on the fact that, for most occasions, when pipe is empty, the
transducer would still receive signal, just smaller than normal, As a result, The flow
M29 meter would show normal operation, which is not correct.
Make sure that the entered value must be less than the normal signal strength.
When much noisy signals are received, to make sure the flow meter will not
incorrectly totalize flow, there is also a ‘Q’ threshold should be entered in M.5

4.1 Steps to Configure the Parameters
The following parameters need to be configured for a proper measurement:

(1) Pipe outer diameter
(2) Pipe wall thickness
(3) Pipe materials (for non-standard pipe materials*, the sound speed for the material must be configured
too)
*Standard pipe materials and standard liquids refer to those with the sound parameters that have
already been programmed into software of the flow meter, therefore there is no need to configure them
(4) Liner material and its sound speed and thickness, if there is any liner.
14

(5) Liquid type (for non-standard liquids, the sound speed of the liquid is also needed)
(6) Transducer type adapted to the flow meter. Generally the Standard M1 clamp-on transducers will be
the selected option.
(7) Transducer mounting methods (the V-method or Z-method is the common option)
(8) Check up the Space displayed on M25 and install the transducers accordingly.
(9) Store the parameter setup
For standard pipe materials and standard liquids, the following detailed step-by-step setup is
recommended.
(1) Press keys MENU 1 1 to enter M11 window to input the digits for the pipe outer diameter, and
then press ENT key.
(2) Press key ▼/- to enter M12 window to input the digits for the pipe outer diameter and then press ENT

Note: 1. For heat measurement, please connect PT100 which installed in water supply and water back pipe
to T1, TX1, T2, TX2, GND terminal.
2. After setting parameter, remember to store parameter in MENU 26, to avoid parameter lose after
turn off.
4.2 Transducers Mounting Allocation
The first step in the installation process is the selection of an optimum location in order to obtain a more
accurate measurement. For this to be completed effectively, a basic knowledge about the piping and its
plumbing system would be advisable.
15

An optimum location would be defined as a straight pipe length full of liquid that is to be measured. The
piping can be in vertical or horizontal position. The following table shows

Examples of optimum locations.

Principles to selection of an optimum location
(1) Install the transducers on a longer length of the straight pipe. The longer the better, and make sure that
the pipe is completely full of liquid.
(2) Make sure that the temperature on the location does not exceed the range for the transducers.
Generally speaking, the closer to the room temperature, the better.
(3) Take the pipe fouling into consideration. Select a straight length of a relatively newer pipe. If the
condition is not satisfying, consider the fouling thickness as part of the liner for a better result.
(4) Some pipes have a kind of plastic liner, and between the outer pipe and the liner there may be a certain
thickness difference that will prevent the ultrasonic waves from direct traveling. Such conditions will make
the measurement very difficult. Whenever possible, try to avoid this kind of pipes. If impossible, try our
plug-in transducers that are installed permanently on the pipe by drilling holes on the pipe while liquid is
running inside.
16

4.3 Transducers Installation
The transducers used by the TUF-2000 series ultrasonic flow meter are made of piezoelectric crystals both
for transmitting and receiving ultrasonic signals through the wall of liquid piping system. The measurement
is realized by measuring the traveling time difference of the ultrasonic signals. Since the difference is very
small, the spacing and the alignment of the transducers are critical factors to the accuracy of the
measurement and the performance of the system. Meticulous care should be taken for the installation of the
transducers.
Steps to the installation of the transducers

(1) Locate an optimum position where the straight pipe length is sufficient, and where pipes are in a
favorable condition, e.g., newer pipes with no rust and ease of operation.
(2) Clean any dust and rust. For a better result, polishing the pipe with a sander is strongly recommended.
(3) Apply adequate coupler to the spot where the transducers are to be installed and leave no gap between
the pipe surface and the transducers.
Extra care should be taken to avoid any sand or dust particles left between the pipe outer surface and the
transducers.
To avoid gas bubbles inside the upper part of the pipe, the transducers should be installed horizontally by
the side of the pipe.
4.3.1 Wiring diagram of transducer
4.3.2 Transducers Spacing
The spacing value shown on menu window M25 refers to the distance of inner spacing between the two
transducers. The actual transducers spacing should be as close as possible to the spacing value.
4.3.3 V-method Installation
V-method installation is the most widely mode for daily measurement with pipe inner diameters ranging
from 15 mm to 200 mm. It is also called reflective mode.
17

4.3.4 Z-method Installation
Z-method is commonly used when the pipe diameter is above 200mm.
4.3.5 W-method Installation
W-method is usually used on plastic pipes with a diameter from 15mm to 50mm.
18

4.3.6 N-method Installation
Rarely used method.
4.4 Installation Checkup

Through the checkup of the installation, one can: check the receiving signal strength, the signal quality Q
value, the traveling time difference of the signals, the estimated liquid speed, the measured traveling time of
the signals and the calculated traveling time ratio. Therefore, optimum measurement result and longer
running time of the instrument can be achieved.
4.4.1 Signal Strength
Signal strength indicates the amplitude of receiving ultrasonic signals by a 3-digit number. [00.0] means
there is no signal detected and [99.9] refers to the maximum signal strength that can be received.
Although the instrument works well if the signal strength ranges from 50.0 to 99.9, stronger signal strength
should be pursued, because a stronger signal means a better result. The following methods are
recommended to obtain stronger signals:
(1) Relocate a more favorable location, if the current location is not good enough for a stable and reliable
flow reading, or if the signal strength is lower than 60.0.
(2) Try to polish the outer surface of the pipe, and apply more coupler to increase the signal strength.
(3) Adjust the transducers both vertically and horizontally while checking the varying signal strength, stop at
the highest position, and then check the transducers spacing to make sure the transducers spacing is
the same as what the M25 shows.
4.4.2 Signal quality
Signal quality is indicated as the Q value in the instrument. A higher Q value would mean a higher Signal
and Noise Ratio (short for SNR), and accordingly a higher degree of accuracy would be achieved. Under
normal pipe condition, the Q value is in the range 60.0-90.0, the higher the better.
Causes for a lower Q value could be:

(1) Interference of other instruments and devices such as a powerful transverter working nearby. Try to
relocate the flow meter to a new place where the interference can be reduced.
(2) Bad sonic coupling for the transducers with the pipe. Try to apply more coupler or clean the surface,
etc.
(3) Pipes are difficult to be measured. Relocation is recommended.
4.4.3 Time Ratio between the Measured Total Transit Time and the Calculated Time
19

This ratio would be used to check the transducer installation. If the pipe parameters are entered correctly
and the transducers are installed properly, the value for this ratio should be in the range of 100±3. If this
range is exceeded, the user should check:
(1) If the pipe parameters are correctly entered.
(2) If the actual spacing of the transducers is right and the same as what the window M25 shows.
(3) If the transducers are installed properly in the right directions.
(4) If the mounting location is good and if the pipe has changed shape or if there is too much fouling inside
the pipes
(5) Other poor condition
5. Communication Protocols
TUF-2000F has an isolated serial port, the RS485.
TUF-2000F can support more than 4 different communication protocols by the same time;
include MODBUS-ASCII, ASCII-RTU, Meter-BUS, the Fuji Extended Protocol and more than
10 compatible communication protocols used by Huizhongs flow meters.
MODBUS is a very commonly used industrial protocol. Both the RTU and the ASCII format of
MODBUS is supported
The Fuji Extended Protocol is developed based on the protocol used in a Japanese ultrasonic
flow meter. It is totally compatible with that of Version 7 flow meter.
TUF-2000F can be used as a sample RTU terminal. The 4-20mA output in the TUF-2000F
can be used to open an analog proportional valve; The OCT output can be used to control the
turn-on and turn-off of other devices such as a pump. The analog input can be used to input
pressure or temperatures signals.
There is a programmable device address (or ID number) located at window M46. When
TUF-2000F is used in a network, all the parameters of the flow meter can be programmed
through the network, except the device address that needs the keypad.
At most occasions, data should be obtained by polling the flow mete with a command, the flow
meter will respond with what the master asks.
TUF-2000F can also set to automatically output data at a period which is programmable.
The TUF-2000F also has a special command sets to facilitate the use of the flow meter in a
GSM network.
5.1 The MODBUS protocol

Both the two formats of the MODBUS protocol can be supported.
A software switch located at the window number 63(shorted as M63 after) select
MODBUS-ASCII or MODBUS-RTU will be in functioning.
The default option is MODBUS-ASCII format.
TUF-2000F can only support MODBUS functions code 3 and code 6, i.e. reading registers
and writing a register.
20

For example, reading the registers from REG0001 to REG0010 in the unit #1 (ultrasonic flow
meter) under the MODBUS-RTU format, the command could be as following
01 03 00 00 00 0A C5 CD （hex）
Unit Function start REG Numbers of REGs Check-sum
While under the MODBUS-ASCII format, the command could be
:01030000000AF2(CR and LF)
Details about the standard MODBUS protocol will not be studied in this manual; please the
users find them on other related materials.
By default, the RS232/RS485 will setup with 9600,none,8,1(9600bd，none parity，8 data bits，
1 stop bit)

Note ：(1) The internal accumulator is been presented by a LONG number for the integer part
together with a REAL number for the decimal fraction. In general uses, only the integer part
needs to be read. Reading the fraction can be omitted. The final accumulator result has a
relation with unit and multiplier. Assume N stands for the integer part (for the positive
accumulator, the integer part is the content of REG 0009, 0010, a 32-bits signed LONG
integer,), Nf stands for the decimal fraction part (for the positive accumulator, the fraction part
is the content of REG 0011, 0012, a 32-bits REAL float number,), n stands for the flow
multiplier (REG 1439).

5.2 The FUJI extended communication protocol

TUF-2000F is compatible with the TUF7-FUJI extended communication protocol which used
in our previous Version7 ultrasonic flow meters. This protocol is a set of basic commands that
are in ASCII format, ending with a carriage return (CR) and line feed (LF), For most of the
commands, The line feed (LF) should be better omitted for fast responding.

Note:
0.（cr）stand for carriage return, its ASCII value is 0DH. (lf) stand for line feed, its ASCII value
is 0AH.
1．d stand for a digit number of 0~9, 0 is expressed as +0.000000E+00
32

2．d stand for digit 0~9, the number before ‘E’ is an integer.
3．Working status code, 1~6 letters, refer to error code related chapter.
4．‘s’ is ‘ON’,’OFF’ or ‘UD’
For example ‘TR:ON,RL:ON’ means the OCT and RELAY are closed
‘TR:UD,RL:UD” means the OCT and RELAY are not used.
5．@ stand for key value, for example, value 30H means key ‘0’. The command ‘M4(cr)’ acts
just like the number 4 key on the keypad was pressed.
6． ’a’ stands for the output current value. The maximum value should not exceed 20.0 For
example AO2.34567, AO0.2
7． ’dddddddd’ stands for the Electronic Serial Number
8． If there are more than one devices in a network, all the basic command must be prefixed
with ‘N’ or ‘W’, otherwise multiple flow meter may reply to the same request, and thus a
conflict may occurs.
9. The returns by the special command for GSM networks contend Chinese characters.
5.2.1Command prefixes and the command connector
(1) The ‘P’ prefix
The ‘P’ prefix can be added before every basic command to have the returned message with
a two digits check-sum. The check-sum is obtained by a binary addition. For example, if the
command DI+(CR) (44H,49H,2BH,0DH in binary numbers）will bring a return like
+1234567E+0m3 (CR)
(2BH,31H,32H,33H,34H,35H,36H,37H,45H,2BH,30H,6DH,33H,20H,0DH,0AH in binary
numbers), then the PDI+(CR) will brings a return like +1234567E+0m3 !F7(CR), after the
character‘!’ are the
check-sum in ASCII format(2BH+31H+32H+33H+34H+35H+

36H+37H+45H+2BH+30H+6DH+33H+20H=(2)F7H)
Pay attention to that there may be no characters or only spaces before the character ‘!’.
(2) The ‘N’ prefix
The usage of prefix ‘N‘ goes like: N + single byte address + basic command.
33

For example if the address number 88 flow meter is going to be addressed, the command
should like: NXDV(CR), the decimal value of X should be 88.
The prefix W is strongly recommended for new users.
(3) The ‘W’ prefix
Usage: W + character string address + basic command
The value of the character string should have a value in the range of 0~65535, except for the
value of 13（0DH carriage return），10（0AH line feed ），42（2AH *），38（26H&）.
For example, if the velocity of number 12345 flow meter is wanted, the command can be like:
W12345DV(CR), (57H,31H,32H,33H,34H,35H,44H,56H,0DH in binary numbers)
(4) The command connecter ‘&’
The command connecter ‘&’ adds several basic commands into a one-line compound
command. The compound command should not exceed a length of over 253 characters. The
prefix ‘P’ should be added before every basic command, to make the returned results having a
check-sum.
For example, if the 1)flow rate 2)velocity 3)positive totalizer 4) net energy totalizer 5) the AI1
input 6) the AI2 input of the address number 4321 flow meter are wanted to return with
check-sum, the one-line command is like:
W4321PDQD&PDV&PDI+&PDIE&PBA1&PAI2(CR)
The returned data are:
+0.000000E+00m3/d!AC(CR)
+0.000000E+00m/s!88(CR)
+1234567E+0m3 !F7(CR)
+0.000000E+0GJ!DA(CR)
+7.838879E+00mA!59
+3.911033E+01!8E(CR)
Any command can be connected together. For example, if a serious key want be sent, to set
up the outer diameter to 1234.567 mm, a compound command will be
MENU11&M1&M2&M3&M4&M:&M5&M6&M7&M=(CR)
5.3 the compatible communication protocols

34

Flow meters made by Huizhong have more than 10 different communications protocols. For
the easier replacement of a water meter, most of these protocols are realized in TUF-2000F
flow meters. Here only one of them, the default for compatible protocols CRL-61D
(D<=50mm), is given for reference.
These protocols are selectable by Menu63, after the selection of MOBUS-ASCI, or

MODBUS-RTU protocols.
interface：RS232，RS485
baud rate：9600 by default，select other 15 different baud rate by Menu 62
parity：NONE, EVEN, ODD can be chosen from Menu 62
Data bits：8
Stop bits: 1, 2
In the following explanation:
XXh stands for the address (or network ID)of the instrument, range:00h-FFh.
YYh stands for the new address that will be assigned, range:00h-FFh.
ZZh the check-sum, which is obtained by means of binary addition of all the data bytes
(take notice to that the addition is for the data bytes, not the controlling and
commands bytes, and the carry over 0ffh is discarded.
H stands for that the number is a hexadecimal number.
All five command are like following:
(1) read water meter data (command 4A）
Format: 2Ah XXh 4Ah
Answer: 26h XXh 4Ah LL(BCD coded ）ZZh
In the above, the contents of LL(BCD) are formatted as in the following table:
13
Position ErrorContent
code 1
Bytes See table below Note
1~4 Flow rate 4 The actual value is divided by 1000, unit in cubic
meter per hour.
5~8 Positive total flow 4 The actual value divided by 10, unit in cubic meter
9~12 Total time 4 Unit in hour
35

(2) Reading the recorded meter data (command 49)
Format：2Ah XXh 49h
Answer: 26h XXh 49h LL（BCD 码） ZZh
The difference between the command 4A and command 49 is that the late command
reads out the data which are recorded in the meter by the time which is defined by
command 4C.
(3) Change the address of the meter (command 4B)
Format： 2Ah XXh 4Bh YYh
Answer: 26h XXh 4Bh YYh
If XXh=YYh, this command can be used to do a loop test the net work, or to scan and
find the existed meters in the network. Please pay attention to that the network may
lose meters if this command is used in a noisy network.
(4) Change or assign a time for meter data recording (command 4C)
Format: 2Ah XXh 4Ch DDh HHh
Answer: 26h XXh 4Ch DDh HHh MMh ZZh
DDh stands for the day, HHh for hour, MM for minute，data are in BCD code.
DD is the day of this month, for example: 2Ah 86h 4Ch 12h 15h stands for assigning a
recording time for the number 86 meter 86. the meter will record the flow rate, total
net flow, the working timer and the error code when time is 15:00 the 12th of this
month. The recorded date will be read out by command 49.
If DD＝0, it stands that the data recording will take place by 15:00 for every day.
(5) Standard date and time broadcasting （command 4D）
Format: 2Ah AAh 4Dh ssmmhhDDMMYY
Answer: no answer
In above, ssmmhhDDMMYY is the date and time in BCD format.
Diagnostic code: 00h stands that the system is working normally.
02h stands for the pipe may be empty or meter works improperly.
36

05h stand for there exist hardware failure, repair may needed.
5.4 Key Value Table

The key values are used in a network application. By use of the key value and a command ‘M’,
we can operate the flow meter through the network on a computer or other kind of terminals.
For example, the command ‘M0(cr)’ acts just like the zero key on the keypad was pressed.
Key Key value Key value ASCII key Key value Key value ASCII
(headecimal) (decimal) (headecimal) (decimal)
